Breagha Campbell swam in the U10 25m backstroke heats and was the fastest qualifier for the finals with a time of 17.39. In the final session Breagha came 2nd in a time of 17.79. Sophie Lewis Ward swam in the U10 25m freestyle and swam a personal best in a time of 16.40, coming 10th overall.

The Y5 freestyle relay team consisted of Breagha Campbell, Sophie Lewis Ward, Megan Mirchandani, Georgia Gibson, reserve: Rosa Collier. They swam extremely well in a time of 1:07:14, breaking the school record and coming 6th overall.

Both teams swam faster than their qualifying times which is fantastic. Very well done to everyone!
